http://www.listsofbests.com/list/55322 The American Film Institute's official 50 nominees for the Top 10 Westerns of All-Time (to be announced June 17, 2008) "AFI defines “western” as a genre of films set in the American West that embodies the spirit, the struggle and the demise of the new frontier." "Brimming with subtext and mythology, westerns offer iconic images of a time gone by and perhaps a time that never was. A man of action with an unspoken code of honor, the western hero faces gun-toting opponents, hostile natives, lawless towns, the harsh forces of nature, and the encroachment of civilization. But the westerner keeps going, drawn to the freedom of the open plains and the promise of a new life." Check out all the entries from "AFI's Top 10" here: http://www.listsofbests.com/list/55322/tagged_as?name=afi+top+10 In alphabetical order.
